  Subtotal nephrectomy accelerates pathological cardiac remodeling post-myocardial infarction: implications for cardiorenal syndrome.

  To further understand the pathophysiology of concomitant cardiac and renal dysfunction, we investigated molecular, structural and functional changes in heart and kidney that occur when a kidney insult (5/6 nephrectomy-STNx) follows myocardial infarction (MI). ⋯ STNx accelerated cardiac changes post-MI whilst MI accelerated STNx-induced renal fibrosis, supporting bidirectional interactions in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS). This animal model may be of use in assessing the impact of therapies to treat CRS.
